Allow Superintendent Role to Create a RFI and an Issue

Ideally, Superintendents should be able to create an RFI and add an Issue as they are in the forefront of the project.

    Hello, While the suggestion from Chris is informative it isn't ideal for all situations. I need to have multiple supers for different disciplines able to create or even draft an RFI for PM approval. I cannot have a Fire Super creating RFI's with the Electrical Type on there. When I add a restriction for a role I can only add one type so all Supers for that one job would only be able to do that one type of RFI.

    Superintendents are able to create RFIs and Issues, but you must give their role permission to do so in the project settings. Hope this helps!

    In your project click the gear icon in the top-right corner and select Project Settings.

    On the left, click on RFIs or Issues.

    Scroll down to the section Restrict Role: By RFI Type.

    Select Superintendent under the Role drop-down, RFI under RFI Type drop-down, and View & Create under the Access drop-down.

    Then , click Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
